Cellulite occurs when the structure of fat cells and connective tissue under the skin changes. The most common causes are; hormones, gender, nutritional habits, lifestyle and inflammation. Cellulite can be treated with a properly functioning fat metabolism and circulation.
It is possible to reduce this appearance, which bothers most women, by making a few easy changes in your diet. Here's what you can do;
1) TAKE SUFFICIENT AMOUNT OF VITAMIN B6.
Vitamin B6 helps renew and strengthen protein metabolism and connective tissue. In addition, vitamin B6 is an essential vitamin for the absorption of zinc, which supports collagen synthesis. Vitamin B6 is mostly found in foods such as yeast, sunflower seeds, pistachios, sesame and garlic.
2) EAT RICH IN VITAMIN C.
Vitamin C. It is a micronutrient required for the production of carnitine, which helps burn fat as energy instead of storing it. Low vitamin C level is associated with high fat content.
It is very important to get enough vitamin C for a strong connective tissue. Strong connective tissue regulates the appearance of the skin surface.
3) DON'T MISS SELENIUM FROM YOUR DIET.
Selenium is a good antioxidant, this is its feature. It fights the formation of cellulite. It also increases the effect of vitamin E. Foods rich in selenium; Brazilian chestnuts, eggs, legumes, sesame seeds, white meat, sunflower seeds.
4) REMOVE FASTFOOD AND ACIDIC BEVERAGES FROM YOUR DIET.
Fast food foods and acidic drinks have an increasing effect on inflammation and fat storage in our body. They negatively affect the smooth appearance of the skin. You should consume these foods as little as possible.
5) DRINK PLENTY OF WATER!
And besides regulating your diet, do sports. You can go 2 times further in reducing the appearance of cellulite by tightening up with sports.
Eating pasta does not prevent you from staying fit!
Yes, you read that right! He is my favorite Pasta, savior, student-friendly, source of happiness, does not have to make us gain weight! There is no need to be afraid, especially if you are an individual who does sports!
Carbohydrates are the source that gives us energy and strength while doing sports. Before exercising, we should consume carbohydrates, which we call simple carbohydrates, which are found in pasta, which mix quickly with the blood. After exercise, if we aim for muscle growth, we should choose carbohydrates according to our goal. I consume pasta on days when I do weight training to maintain & develop my muscle mass. In normal times, that is, on days when I don't do sports, when I feel like it, I eat in moderation without restricting myself. The important thing is that we know how to cook it and which pasta to choose. In this way, we can feed both our stomach and our soul. First, let's see, what are the reasons why we consider pasta FORBIDDEN in the diet?
1) It contains white flour
2) It has a high glycemic index
3) Containing gluten
Now let's look at our solutions;
1) Nowadays, pasta is produced with many ingredients, from whole wheat to legume flour. First of all, we go to the market and buy our pasta made with whole wheat flour.
2) We boil our water and add our pasta into it.
THE IMPORTANT POINT STARTS NOW; We do not boil the pasta for too long. After cooking for 7-10 minutes, we strain it. (when cooked this way, its glycemic index becomes lower than the glycemic index of oats)
3) Then, if you want, choose a healthy sauce and sauce your pasta, or mix it with boiled vegetables and fresh greens, and serve it with yoghurt. Consume it :)
Note: The portion amount should be adjusted according to the person's weight and metabolism. For an average healthy individual, 5-6 spoons of pasta can be consumed as a main meal with meat options and yoghurt.
